@veganbond be aware that even weed creeps up on you in strange ways if you smoke it for long enough. You have a ways to go yet.

@InnannasRainbow Drugs can rob you of any Morals you once had... The only way forward is to forgive and move on, I have to Preach my message so others may see that thier is a light at the end of the dark tunnel, and God loves you so much!! I never thought my life could be so wonderfull and happy, the scriptures are wonderfull and healing, the word of god is alive, and Jesus died for our sins, so I repented and started a new life, a life of love~!

@GerrettJihad Why the hell would a parent do such a thing?? It's sickening. They are supposed to guide you through and love you, not give you drugs.

taking this drug, you are doing the same thing as getting a sledgehammer and smashing it over your head. you are never the same after you try it.

Its so dangerous. even people with no history of mental illness suffer psychotic episodes.

its not the same thing as cocaine, this is bad shit, heavy stuff. brain damage.

the comedown is so bad a level of pain you did not know was capable, you HAVE NO IDEA, and can be possibly the most horrific thing you will ever experience without aid!.
